POINT AND SHOOT: Rutger Hauer, looking a bit like Al Pacino’s Phil Spector, will play the mysterious Macklyn on the new season of HBO’s “True Blood.” No premiere date yet. Photo: Gaz Shirley,PacificCoastNews.com

The Dutch-born actor was caught by cameras on the show’s set, filming his first scenes for the upcoming sixth season.

Hauer will play Macklyn, who — in addition to his wild, electric-shock hair and flamboyant sartorial style — apparently has some sort of mysterious connection to Sooki Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and her brother, Jason (Ryan Kwanten), who are continuing their quest to find out who murdered their parents.
